Dear Brian,
I’d be more than happy to give you advice on where to stay when you begin your course at university! I lived in an apartment building a few minutes away from campus when I attended. The building was a 10-minute walk from the main campus and 5 minutes away from the Spruceland Shopping Center. It had some gorgeous apple trees growing out front!
The best way for you to look for a place to live would be for you to look on Facebook. There, you’ll find a ton of groups for people looking to rent houses, apartments, and even single rooms in someone’s home. In addition, you can easily direct message the homeowner if you find a place that suits your needs! It would be a really great way to not only find accommodation but to also practice your written English skills.
Make sure that you don’t make the common mistakes that other student renters make, though! Don’t go with the cheapest accommodation you can find if it’s further than a few minutes away from campus. If you do that, you’ll end up being late or skipping class more often than you think you will. Also, don’t move into the first place offered if it isn’t something you like!
Best wishes,
Mike
